Video links

Saturday, May 24th, 2008

Two new video links are available below and have been catalogued in the video links section on the Polar Blog.  Both video clips depict the changing state of the sea ice in the Arctic Ocean.  The first video clip from the BBC discusses the break-up of the ancient ice shelves off the northern coastline of Ellesmere Island, the second video clip is sourced from the website of Thomas Homer-Dixon (renowned environmental research), which tracks the loss of multi-year sea ice exiting the Arctic basin.  Both video clips provide clear representation of the changing state of the Arctic landscape.
